    How complicated can it possibly be to design leggings? The fit doesn't change much, and then all there is to do is strategically rip and metallicize them. Voila! Lindsay's "pants."

    Steve Madden increased its profits by increasing its prices... Have you seen how much more expensive their shoes are lately?

    Didn't Lindsay go platinum blonde yesterday?

    And is she too lazy to design her leggings herself these days? (or to wear them, obvsly)

    At a certain frequency of repetition: I love you for this perfect description of why the words "squirrel" and "ceiling" fascinate me.

    In other news: I'm having a hard time reading anything on this page because there's this huge Joan Rivers roast ad, and she looks younger than the Pantsless One.

    Haute couture (French for "high sewing" or "high dressmaking"; pronounced [oːt kutyʁ]) refers to the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing. Haute couture is made to order for a specific customer, and it is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques.

    Used to describe a liquid, I think the word "couture" loses ALL meaning.

    I hope the fragrance bubble bursts soon. Who BUYS these scents anyway to keep the industry thinking it should be churning them out??

    What? Sevin Nyne doesn't already make spray on pants?
    Or is this simply how she is justifying her disdain for trousers?

    If I designed leggings for Lindsay, I'd make them flesh colored with erratically spray-tanned orange splotches all over them, just like her actual legs appear in the picture above. I will call them the "Don't drink and spray" leggings.

    Whoa, wait a second. I thought we all agreed that "chubby" or "fat" is NOT a value judgment; it's just a descriptor. So why the outrage? If this ad were for "tall," would we REALLY be jumping up and down and saying "But she's not even TALL! How dare they!"

    Sears called the "Pretty Plus", if I recall correctly. I wasn't a chubby kid, but I wore this stuff for years.

    @land surveyor k: Yeah, I think she's chubby too. Speaking as a former chubby kid myself in the early 80s. I have several nieces ages 4-8, lots of my friends have young kids too, and they became leaner after toddler'hood. Most kids I knew when I was growing up were slim, I was about that girl's size. I don't see the harm in admitting she still has baby fat. It's not cruelty to be honest with kids, as long as it's not done in a way that implies there is something wrong with them.

    I@lawschoolmakesmecrazy: She is chubby. Whatever. It's not a bad thing and she's little anyway.


    My dad would have pinched the hell out of her cheeks and been all, "baby fat!!1!"

    One of the most agonizing moments of my childhood was being fitted for a Catholic schoolgirl's uniform.


    I was a 'Chubbette'. I cried for days.


    And this was not a PRIVATE fitting. This shit was done in front of EVERYONE.
